Tbf cypriot football would drive you insane, appolon applied the same vile tactics as aek larnaca did to cork. Very effective but how their fans can watch a season of it is beyond me.

The diving from Appollon was even worse than Larnaca I felt, but the referees buy it.

The ref went over to their bench at one stage about the fans, telling them that this was the first of three strikes for flares on the pitch. He told them to get that message through! I think that is how they watch it! LOL

Small Club (England) v Hajduk Split (Croatia) tough one for them in fairness.

Small Club

Wouldn't worry about it being a tough draw myself though, the Croats should coast through that one.

The nation holds it's breath...YES, WE'RE THERE!!!

Great performance from Atalanta against Everton Clap

. It was always going to be tough for them this season after losing some key players, thankfully they've kept the likes of Papu Gomez still, and Gasperini is still in charge

Everton already in deep trouble in their group drawing 2-2 at home to Limmasol and have Lyon in a double header next.

Don't like Koeman but would like to see them do well in it

Do you have to say that every time you talk about anything Everton related?

Yes. It's compulsory I'm afraid.

Anyway did I ever let you know what I think about the Northern Ireland team? I really really really don't like them!!!!

Anyway back on topic, I think the Everton-Lyon home game should be a good match. Lyon only drew with that Cypriot team and have drawn at home to Atalanta so that has cushioned Everton's lost 2 points tonight. Well within it for second place

Ah I'm only trying to get a rise out of you buddy!!! LOL

Everton were so naive during the summer, they had plenty of money to replace Lukaku and anyone could see Sandro/Rooney were not going to hit 15-20 league goals a season.

Andre Gray would have been a perfect player for Everton and they stepped aside and allowed Watford a free run, I'd say Koeman is kicking himself.

Ashley Williams having a shocker this season

Milan pulled it from the brink tonight. 2 up and had to rely on an injury time winner. Cutrone with the late winner. Italy have some fine forwards coming through these days.

Good point Ali, they must be favourites to win it
